GTOM: George is played by Barry Bostwick. Patty Duke plays Martha.


and the irony of the campfire my people in the 1700's and early 1800's were around the cumberland gap area, homesteading under something called a "tomahawk homestead". this would have been the northeast corner of tennessee, and southeast kentucky. Lots of cemeteries around there with my family last name.
And here i sit in arizona.




From what I understand, the Balls came through the Gap, said "F--- this sh--!" and settled a couple of miles on the other side and didn't budge for 70 years.
